Ultimate Bar Book

The Comprehensive Guide to Over 1,000 Cocktails! Ultimate Bar Book is the first and only guide to classic and new drink recipes. Loaded with essential-to-know topics such as barware, tools, and mixing tips, this book has it all.

As a mistress of mixology, the author has the classics down to a T - the Martini, the Bloody Mary, plus the many variations (the Dirty Martini, the Virgin Mary). And then there are all the creative new elixirs the author brings to the table, like the Tasmanian Twister Cocktail or the Citron Sparkler.

Illustrations show precisely what type of glass should be used for each drink. With dozens of recipes for garnishes, rims, infusions, and syrups; punches, gelatin shooters, hot drinks, and non-alcoholic beverages; and - let's not forget - an essential selection of hangover remedies, Ultimate Bar Book is nothing short of top-shelf!

"This book is better than I thought it would be! I was looking for something that wasn't just your typical cocktail recipe book, and wanted something that gave more context and history behind certain drinks and more information about the different alcohols. This book is great!! It's small in size, has a classy cover, and is packed full of information - great for anyone with a keen interest in cocktail making as a hobby and interested in learning more about it."
